At the Polymers Conference in Athens (May 2024), AXIA Innovation GmbH represented the Redondo project. We presented the market feasibility studiy of reversible cross-linked polyethylene (rPEX) using green additives. We also had fruitful discussions on market possibilities and the internal and external factors that contribute to the adoption of these sustainable materials. #sustainability #circulareconomy #marketanalysis

📣 Introducing our sister project, BIORING! BIORING is developing bio-based building blocks to create high-performance bio-coatings with enhanced thermomechanical properties, offering a sustainable alternative to fossil-based options 🌟 The project brings together an consortium of 12 partners from 5 countries, and is coordinated by The Spanish National Research Council. Both BIORING and SuperBark were launched under the same Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) 2022 funding call, and our teams have already started collaborating, united by a common goal: developing safe, sustainable coatings with over 95% bio-based content. For instance, the SuperBark team joined the BIORING SSbD Open Innovation Workshop in May, where experts in SSbD, LCA, chemicals, materials, process design & modeling, and data analytics shared best practices for sustainability assessment in innovative processes. We look forward to continue our joint efforts and drive progress toward biobased coatings and adhesives! 🌲 🌲 👉 Learn more about BIORING here: https://lnkd.in/d-H9d4Ya #BioCoatings #Sustainability #Bioeconomy #CircularEconomy #Innovation #CBEJU #SisterProject

As the Chair of the Governing Board of the @Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU), I am proud to highlight the tremendous benefits our collaboration with the European Commission has brought to the #biobased sector.  The recent independent evaluation report highlights the partnership’s success in enabling the #industrialisation of bio-based innovations and supporting small businesses. Our joint efforts have driven technological advancements, market readiness, and industrialisation of bio-based innovations. The leverage effect of private investments further highlights the success of the public-private partnership, positioning CBE JU as a cornerstone of the EU’s #sustainable industrial strategy. The future of the bio-based sector is promising, and we are committed to continuing our efforts to drive sustainable growth and innovation.  Find more details about the report in this news article: https://lnkd.in/eVK3cK9P

ECP4 President, Dr. Bertrand Fillon, was present during the European Plastics Converters | EuPC Annual Conference, a groundbreaking event for the #plastics sector, which took place in Brussels on 11-12 June, gathering industry representatives, academia as well as policymakers. As a moderator of the session dedicated to #innovation, Dr. Fillon, together with EuPC President, Mr. Benoît Hennaut emphasised the need to reinforce the synergistic relationship between #research and industry in addressing key #challenges in the plastics industry. EuPC and ECP4 keep working together closely to ensure that innovative #advancements in the plastics field align with industry #needs and are swiftly upscaled to support the achievement of a more #circular future for plastics. #plastic #research #innovation #cooperation #circularity

What an inspiring day at IFAT worldwide, the world's leading trade fair for environmental technologies. Among the astounding amount of companies, lectures and potential solutions, there were a lot of interesting talks and topics for Teblick: Plastic Constructions & Installations: - Presentations on the treatment and removal of POPs and PFAS from industrial water streams. (contact me to find out how Teblick can help companies and governments to deal with this challenge) - Connecting with our partners and suppliers, such as Henze GmbH (via Profilplast BV), TECNIUM-Casals Cardona Ind. S.A., WDS Welding GmbH and others. - Meeting up with interesting 'problem solvers' like Paques, providing wastewater and biogas solutions worldwide. It's great to see the amount of work, drive and potential there is for furthering environmental technologies and solutions. And even better to know that Teblick: Plastic Constructions & Installations can continue to contribute hereto! 🌍 🚰 ♻ 💪 And of course thanks to Rypens Peter for the great company during the day. #ifat #IFATworldwide #munich #environment #innovation #plastics #environmentaltechnologies

Dr. Yasuhisa Ichihashi, manager of the development of PA66 chemical recycling in R&D, will present at ITB's Critical Technologies for Sustainable Vehicle Production 2024 Conference. Join Dr. Ichihashi for a deep dive into "Chemical Recycling of Polyamide 66 Using Depolymerization Using Microwave." In his presentation, Dr. Ichihashi will share insights into Asahi Kasei's journey toward commercializing a revolutionary chemical recycling process for PA66 (nylon 66) utilizing microwave technology. Our innovative approach, leveraging microwaves for depolymerization, aims for high-yield monomer extraction (HMD and ADA) with minimal energy consumption. These monomers then pave the way for creating new PA66, contributing to a sustainable future.

This topic will hit the majority of our tape supply chain members. Even the SMEs cannot avoid it and it will help to understand the sustainability reporting expectations. Looking forward to the insights!

These days, I have the pleasure to attend on behalf of IDONIAL Centro Tecnológico to the international galvanizing conference Intergalva 2024, held in Bruges, Belgium. This is an event where the world's main batch galvanising companies, alloy suppliers, industrial equipment, additives, fluxes, ... meet all together for interesting discussion on their business. From the ‘eyes’ of those who we are working on Innovation and R&D projects, it is really curious to see how each different industrial sector sees and understands with a completely different perspective the challenge of decarbonisation, the concept of circular economy, the global situation of steel and other elements such as, in this case, Zinc. 

Finalising Sappi Europe’s 2023 retrospective, we’re throwing the spotlight on one of our most innovative technological breakthroughs.   Innovation and sustainability are deep rooted within Sappi’s DNA. That’s why we’re passionate about investing in and producing future-oriented, renewable solutions to build a better future for all. Our investment in the research and development of ever-more recyclable paper packaging is producing some exciting results.   Our state-of-the-art barrier coating machine in our Alfeld Mill in Germany is leading the way in advancing packaging production technology in collaboration with brands, to break boundaries towards the bespoke flexible packaging solutions of today and tomorrow. With a production capacity of 300 million square metres of barrier and sealable papers per year, this game changing technology allows brands to make the switch from plastic-based flexible packaging that is often a challenge to recycle, to a renewable, recyclable fibre-based solution that gives the optimum protection to a packaged product’s quality.   Sappi is proud to be leading the way in the development of fibre-based sustainable solutions. It's thanks to our bold-thinking teams and pioneering visionaries that we can be a driving force behind these advances in industry engineering and the creation of the circular solutions of the future.   Discover more about how Sappi puts innovation at the core of its operations 👉  https://lnkd.in/di_Dry6   #Sappi #Packaging #Sustainablepackaging #Sustainability #Recyclability
